Fiscal Note: This contract will provide for guaranteed revenue of up to $825,000, a 40% revenue sharing formula (which applies to revenue in excess of the minimum guarantee), and $225,000 in media trade for a minimum value of up to $1,050,000* over a three-year period during which full wraps may be sold and
evaluated, and with a single option to extend the contract for a three-year period with additional guaranteed revenue. The additional guaranteed revenue will vary, depending on whether or not full wraps may continue to be sold.

Therefore, the Metro Transit 2007 budget may fall short in this revenue category by an estimated $130,000.
